    As expected...very entertaining!

    Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor up to their usual entertaining antics!... Although a rather 'aged' film, it still provides light-hearted mischief and laughter along the way, from Messrs Wilder and Pryor.

    Very entertaining and worthwhile watching!

    this film stands the test of time. Very funny, sometimes achingly so. Decent plot, with good characters. Well worth a sit. I thought it was brill.
